Anyone else paranoid?

I am 36 weeks and 3 days. I'm starting to experience symptoms of my body getting ready for labor and am slightly paranoid my water will break while I'm sitting on something or in bed. With my first, my waters broke in the middle of the night while I was trying very unsuccessfully to sleep.

As such, my bed has towels on it. I'm using a towel to sit on in the car and I tuck a towel under me when I sit on the couch - especially the really nice new microfibre couch that will stain massively if it got wet. I feel a little silly that I'm being so paranoid but I don't want to mess up my furniture or car!!
